Setup: the one place to start
Setup (/setup) is where a site owner starts. It shows live whether each step is done for the current project and environment, and marks the next one.
The checklist
Section titled “The checklist”| Step | Done when | Where it leads |
|---|---|---|
| Connect an app | An app sent traces or a heartbeat in the last 7 days | The Connect an app tab, then Agents once it is done |
| Protect it | An app’s runtime protection reported in the last 30 days, or a Shield360 Edge instance is checking in | WAF & RASP (/waf-rasp). See runtime protection and Edge |
| Install the collector | An enrolled computer checked in today | The Install the collector tab, then Deployment settings once one is enrolled |
The collector is only needed to see the AI tools your people use. An app does not need it.
A step shows Could not be checked when your role does not reach that area or the check failed. It is never reported as not done.
The tabs
Section titled “The tabs”- Connect an app (
/setup?tab=connect): name the app, pick its runtime and where it runs, create a key bound to this environment, paste the configuration, and watch the live check. - Other ways to connect (
/setup?tab=guides): every setup guide, filtered by stage, with your Shield360 address in each snippet. - Install the collector (
/setup?tab=collector): enroll a computer with an install key. - Logs and servers (
/setup?tab=logs): turn on an app’s logs, and send server metrics and log files.
Install keys, the browser extension, proxies and what is collected are configuration, so they stay in Settings → Deployment (/settings/collection). Setup links there.
Old links
Section titled “Old links”/connect, /getting-started and /settings/setup-guides redirect to /setup and keep their query strings.
